Chapter 588: Nuannuan Was OP

“I used acupuncture, and according to my master, this is a long-lost acupuncture technique. These needles can force the blood vessels to contract. Through the ceaseless contraction of the blood vessels, the congested blood that adheres to the walls of the blood vessels will loosen. Then, with the fire cups in place, the blood will flow out through the pores.”

The old master was utterly stunned by Nuanuan’s explanation.

“Then, based on what you’re saying… Once the congested blood attached to the blood vessels is removed, there won’t be any congested blood attached to my blood vessels anymore?”

“Yes, as long as it’s cleaned up, there won’t be any adhesions. However, from the looks of it, Grandpa, you have a lot of adhesions on your blood vessels. You can’t remove all of them at once. Furthermore, you can’t go through fire cupping every day. So, if you want to cure your illness completely, it will take a year or so.”

The old master felt that his body was working fine, but his legs were not convenient at all. When he heard that his legs could heal completely within half a year to a year, he was especially happy.

“Alright, alright, alright. When Grandpa’s leg recovers, you and Chi Yang can go ahead and work. Grandpa will take care of your children at home. Hahahaha…”

The old master felt the last stage of his life had just begun ever since he had a granddaughter-in-law.

Seeing that the old master was constantly talking about the little buns that Nuannuan would give birth to, Zhong Nuannuan thought that she should help increase the Chi family’s population as soon as possible.

In her previous life, the old master had waited for six years, but nothing came out of it. In fact, everything turned into nothing. In this lifetime, she could not let her grandfather-in-law wait any longer than that, or else it would be too cruel.

All of a sudden, Zhong Nuannuan was. .h.i.t with the realization on how young she was. She was not even 18 years old yet. She was not even married, let alone at the age of having a two-year-old child.

At the military base, although all the major generals who had been questioned had been released, Leng Jinpeng and Chi Yang had not gotten off work yet. They still had to go through all the records of the questioning over the past two days.

Suddenly, someone pushed the door open. They looked up and saw that it was the chief of staff, Qu Mingyi.

At that moment, he was br.i.m.m.i.n.g with the fatigue from his travels while dragging a suitcase behind him.

“Why are you back?” Leng Jinpeng was happy that the chief of staff had suddenly returned. After all, there would be another person helping him with his work.

However—

Qu Mingyi’s wife was the Camino amba.s.sador in Sab and his son was appointed a foreign student there. Qu Mingyi was the only one left in the country.

Furthermore, he was a family man and his relations.h.i.+p with his wife and son had always been good. If he wanted to see his family, he could only save up all his holiday and go to Sab.

However, since he was a major general with a special ident.i.ty, it was not easy for him obtain approval for his leave. Furthermore, his wife was very busy with work. Therefore, the family could only meet twice a year.

Qu Mingyi finally managed to acc.u.mulate 20 days of leave to go to Sab. Yet, n.o.body expected that he would be back in 10 days.

Qu Mingyi’s face darkened when he heard Leng Jinpeng’s question. He could not help exuding sadness.

“I heard that something happened here. I was worried about you guys, so I hurried back!”

Then, he looked at Chi Yang. “Are you alright? Are you hurt?”

Chi Yang was touched by the chief of staff’s concern. “I’m not hurt. The special forces team returned safely too. Two of them are severely injured, and eleven of them suffered light injuries.

“I told them not to inform you, but you still found out in the end. You finally get your chance to go abroad, but you’ve returned so early. Even if you haven’t spent all of your holidays yet, you won’t be able to go through with the paperwork. You can only apply next year.”
